Wells Fargo Championship
The Wells Fargo Championship is a professional golf tournament on the PGA Tour. The event is held at the Quail Hollow Club in Charlotte, North Carolina in early May, and has attracted some of the top players on the tour. It debuted in 2003 as the Wachovia Championship and was known in 2009 and 2010 as the Quail Hollow Championship. In 2013, the tournament offered a $6.7 million purse with a winner's prize of $1.206 million.
From 2004–06 and 2011–13, the tournament ended in a playoff. Additionally, the event is known to have one of the tougher finishes on tour with 16, 17, and 18, commonly known as the "Green Mile," often ranked among the PGA Tour's toughest holes. The majority of the charitable proceeds from the tournament benefit Teach for America. The tournament is organized by Champions for Education, Inc.〔(Champions for Education )〕
==Sponsorship==
The event is sponsored by Wells Fargo, which purchased Wachovia in 2008. In 2009, Wells Fargo dropped the Wachovia name from the tournament for marketing purposes as they intended to stop using the Wachovia name for all purposes. In addition, Wells Fargo was concerned about the image of a bank sponsoring a sporting event that had received Federal funding under the Troubled Assets Relief Program. Wells Fargo's sponsorship of the tournament runs through 2019.
